ANECDOTE

Sermonettes Breed Shallow Faith

  • Janet cites Sam's blog "Sermonettes Breed Christianettes" and links it to Ed Young's comment favoring 20-minute sermons.
  • She uses this as an example of declining attention to deep, expositional preaching.
INSIGHT

Sermons Need Depth Not Brevity

  • Sam Storms warns that short "sermonettes" weaken biblical authority and produce shallow Christians.
  • He argues full, expositional preaching is needed for Scripture to be "at work" in believers.
ADVICE

Declare Forgiveness With The Gospel

  • When proclaiming the gospel, declare forgiveness to those who believe and withhold it when they reject Christ.
  • This authority reflects heaven's verdict and accompanies gospel proclamation, not personal power to save.
